The most distinctive feature of Photinia "Volcano" is its stunning foliage, which is a deep burgundy-red when the plant is young and gradually matures to a glossy, dark green color as it ages. The leaves are oval-shaped and have serrated edges, creating a striking contrast against the plant's stems and branches.
Photinia "Volcano" is a relatively compact shrub, reaching a height and spread of around 4-6 feet (1.2-1.8 meters) over several years. It is also quite hardy, tolerating a wide range of temperatures and soil conditions, making it a versatile addition to any garden or landscape.
Care Tips:
-
Light: Photinia "Volcano" thrives in full sun to partial shade, but prefers a location with bright, indirect sunlight.

Water: Water the plant regularly to keep the soil consistently moist, but avoid overwatering as this can lead to root rot. Ensure good drainage to prevent waterlogging.
-
Soil: Use well-draining, fertile soil that is rich in organic matter.
-
Fertilizer: Apply a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in the spring and again in the fall to promote healthy growth and foliage color.
-
Pruning: Prune the plant as needed to maintain its size and shape, and to promote new growth. Prune in late winter or early spring before new growth begins.
-
Pest and disease control: Photinia "Volcano" is generally resistant to pests and diseases, but watch out for common issues like scale insects, spider mites, and powdery mildew.
-
Winter care: Protect the plant from freezing temperatures by wrapping it with burlap or providing a layer of mulch around the base of the plant.
